One candle, one light, will bring hope to the darkness. One spark, one flicker, will light the flame. One act, one motion, will ignite a movement. One man, One God, can heal with The Name. By Audra Ohm Image from Pixabay.com

The Last Time
By Audra Ohm If I knew it was the last time we would talk over coffee at the kitchen table. I would have asked more questions, put my phone down and turned off the cable. If I knew it was the last time we went for a walk together. I would have walked a bit…
The Day the Clouds Touched the Earth
The Day the Clouds Touched the Earth By: Audra Ohm Summer days are for daydreaming into the sky. Stretched out over a homemade quilt grandma made. Guessing the different shapes that go by. “Look at that one!” yelled Charlie as he prayed. “That’s a warrior like me, ready to conquer anything!” “Mighty and…
One Horned Flying Horse
I look in the mirror and what do I see? One horn on my head, not two or three Everyone I see has more than one They are all alike except for me I stand alone in my pail plain skin While others around me all blend in Different colors all around I’m outside the…
Stepping into the Furnace
We all know the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. We read their story as kids and made a mental note in our heads of their great faith & God’s protection over their bodies. I didn’t think too much of that story beyond that because I believed it did not relate to me. I felt…
“God, can I get a little help here?”
A movie that is popular in our “house” right now is the new Disney movie, Moana. It seems to be on repeat and I honestly don’t mind one bit because it is THAT good. If you haven’t seen it I’m going to be referencing the movie so you may want to stop what you are…

Some may call us crazy
We received a call late Tuesday night informing us that our daughters birth mom was expecting again and she wanted us to adopt. My mouth dropped as I listened on the phone for all the details. She told me she is due early February and doesn’t know the gender yet. My heart leaped out of…
How to have Joy through the Wait

Blue painters tape destiguished each key from the other to aid in the learning process. Her eyes followed the notes intently on the page trying to hit the…
How to Align your Life with the Right Target
The young boy grabs his jacket off the hook and runs after his dad into the crisp morning air. The sun is just peaking over the pine trees casting glimmers of light onto the dew in the grass. His rain boots squeak as they follow a much larger & aged pair of work boots. The…
Stone by Stone
Hands tightly grabbed each of her arms carrying her down the long dirt path A sin exposed for all to see regret, sorrow, pain, and presumable death They threw her down against the wall her face landing in the dirt Her hands gripping the tiny stones beneath her tears falling onto her soiled scarlet skirt…
Just Love
As I sit her in the airport awaiting my final flight home,that has been delayed three times now and counting, I can’t help but reflect on this past week. How do I even put what I experienced into words? So many emotions, so encouraged and I am changed beyond understanding. There are things about this…
